Unusual Irish Whiskey Cocktails for St. Patrick's Day

Posted: 03/15/2012 6:05 pm

This time of year, you always see lots of recipes for Irish Coffees, Irish Car Bombs and green drinks that involve Guinness.

While there's nothing wrong with any of those beverages (except perhaps the green beer), we'd like to make your St. Patrick's Day a little more interesting this year.

So we suggest you honor the Emerald Isle on Saturday by making cocktails that not only call for smooth Irish whiskey but also some unexpected ingredients.

Slainté!

I know it's a disgusting name, and I wouldn't exactly call it a cocktail, bit I do like an Irish Car Bomb.

the only thing that should touch Irish Whiskey is good crystal, an ice cube, a splash of water, and someones lips.
